New England
’s 21 straight regular season wins – Done.
Miami
’s road losing streak – Done.
My Survivor pool season – Done.
It looks as if no thing is a sure thing when the 12 ½ point favorite Patriots got completely demolished by Ronnie Brown and the Fish. The Bills also received a scare and pulled out a last-second win while the Giants needed overtime to beat the Bengals. But like I have said, it is all about surviving and advancing, and I was unsuccessful last week.
Anyway, I will still continue this article for those that are allowed to re-buy into their pool or were not eliminated last week.
The Rules:
-
Stay away from road teams.
-
Stay away from divisional matchups.
-
Never take a divisional team on the road.
Keep in mind as we get later in the season and have less options, some of these rules must be disregarded.
Teams chosen:
Week 1

Week 2
:
Week 3
: New England Patriots (loss – lost to
On to Week 4…
Let’s break down each game again …
Browns @ Bengals – Too risky for these winless teams.
Vikings @ Titans – Good game.
Broncos @ Chiefs – Broncos are an option because the Chiefs are terrible. This breaks a cardinal rule (#3), but
49ers @ Saints – Before the week, I liked the Saints (1-2) coming off a tough loss in
Cardinals @ Jets – Jets need this win, but it won’t be easy.
Packers @ Bucs – Battle of the Bay – stay away.
Falcons @ Panthers – Possibly, but I’ll avoid this divisional game.
Texans @ Jaguars – These AFC South games are tricky.
Chargers @ Raiders – Another AFC West road team that has potential, but the Raiders look better than the Chiefs and could potentially be 2-1 if they didn’t blow the game in
Bills @ Rams – If you are alive, you probably used
Redskins @ Cowboys – Divisional rivalry. Looking elsewhere even though I think the Cowboys win by double digits.
Eagles @ Bears – Pass.
Ravens @ Steelers – Steelers are banged up and
Here’s
your
choices:
Broncos over Chiefs
Saints over 49ers
My
pick:
I’m going with the Broncos on the road in Kansas City. Yea, I know it breaks the biggest rule, but at this point in this crazy season, I don’t care about it. The Chiefs are awful and the Broncos are hot. Kansas City will win only about three games this year and this isn’t one of them. Go
Broncos!
